They looked so very harmonious and so suitable back then, until after they had just come home from playing and exploring the many foods that are around there Akira and Sela immediately came home but when just about to enter the house Akira actually there mr. Wen was there and he immediately called out to Sela loudly back then.
"Sail...." Shouted master Wen calling Sela back then.
Sela who knew that Mr. Wen was calling her quickly she immediately encouraged Akira to immediately enter her house because she did not want to see her stepfather at this time.
"About let's hurry in, let's just go in. Ignore the guy." Sela told Akira.
But unfortunately Mr. Wen ran quickly and he managed to hold Sela's hand until it made Sela revolt and just threw the hand of Mr. Wen hard and rough.
"So wait, don't you miss your mother?" Sir Wen said to him.
"Take me off, you who I am don't recognize you at all and don't get along with me, let go!" Sela snapped cynically at him.
Mr. Wen was a little ill hearing that Sela was not even willing to recognize herself anymore, he knew all this time he did not give enough attention to Sela because both busy with work but his affection for Sela was real and sincere from the beginning he had considered Sela as her own biological daughter and she always worried about Sela when Sela was not home.
"So I don't care if you forget me or don't want to know me anymore, but your mother she's the one who gave birth to you, and he's sick right now he's been in treatment for almost a Sunday and he keeps calling your name every time he sleeps, he keeps worrying about you he loves you so much, I beg you to come look at her and meet her even if only for a moment, because after all she is your mother do not regret anything Sela." Sir Wen's words persuaded Sela back then.
But Sela still does not change her decision she will only meet the mother after she has been able to prove all the things that Madame Choi wants from her in accordance with what they agreed before.
"Had master Wen no use you saying this to me, haha.do you think I'm a child? I know clearly even more recognizing how my mother compared to you, Mr. Wen, she would not be happy or healed just by my appearance, this was not the first thing that happened to her, and I'll prove it all to you too Miss Choi when the time comes!" Said Sela firmly and she immediately left by pulling Akira's hand back then.
"Let's Akira hurry kit go don't look at him!" Sela said to Akira at the time.
"Sela.wait Sela....So long..." Shouted master Wen was about to stop Sela just then.
But unfortunately Sela did not care about him at all, and she continued to walk into Akira's house without looking at her stepfather for a bit, although in her heart Sela also misses the figure of Lady Choi, all children must love her mother and certainly will not be able to get away from the figure of the mother especially this daughter like Sela.
But because Sela is afraid her mother will scold her and will only come back demanding herself to be perfect and do the thing her mother wants, that's what Sela doesn't want to hear from a lady Choi even to call her mother that sounds very difficult for a Sela because she feels that the mother is not like she used to be, he was not friendly and dear to him again.
Until Sela could only sit down and continue to bow, Sela felt sad on the sofa of Akira's house at that time, she was very sad and did not know what to do, he said, as for Akira who saw Sela's whereabouts glum like that, he felt pity and immediately sat down beside Sela then started talking to her.
"So there's something going on with you, are you having time with your parents? And that guy was he your dad?" Akira asked him at the time.
"No he's not my father he's my father, I'm not close to him and he's just I think of as Mr. Wen not just my father" Sela replied at the time.
He spoke that way because he always felt that no one could take his place, his father, he loved his father so much that in his heart there was only one person he could call a father even though he had passed away in a very long time, but that didn't mean Sela didn't like Mr. Wen just that she felt that master Wen and father were indeed very different, master Wen was master Wen and his father was the one who caused him to exist in the world, that was what made Sela only able to call master Wen by the name of master alone, that was, not with the name of the father who is usually used by other children even though a father is connected like Mr. Wen.
Akira smiles a little and he nods in agreement with what Sela says because for him it is not wrong, because Sela is free to call anyone with what she wants.
"So she said your mother was sick, are you sure you don't want to see her? I know you must miss him and I'm sure you didn't feel good about yelling at me, did you?" Akira said to him at that moment.
Sela immediately turned her head towards Akira with her sad gaze at that moment, she immediately nodded and admitted honestly to Akira with what she actually felt at that moment, she said, he really felt anxious and uncertain at that moment.
"As if only you understand me now, I can't even meet grandma in this condition, I'm afraid she'll worry about me if I tell her, I really miss my mom, I really miss my mom, I want him to give me love like other mothers, I want to be able to have dinner with my family even if it's only occasionally or once a year I don't have a problem. But at this time since father died and mother remarried to old Wen they were both very different from my father, master Wen lost to mother and could not hold mother to not work, she said, they keep putting money, money and money without them knowing how I grew up and how I feel all along, and yet I think not everything in this world can be solved with money even though I know money can buy everything but not with compassion and conscience in humans," reply Sela with teary eyes when talking about it to Akira.
Akira quickly hugged Sela and continued to rub her shoulders gently she felt what Sela felt back then, she knows all this must be very heavy and Akira can clearly understand how Sela feels because she was also born from a family that only has her mother in her life, his father is no more and he never knows who his father is at all, in fact, it feels more sad fate Akira since childhood compared to Akira who can still feel the affection of the figure of the father even though only in his childhood.
While Akira was used to living without a father or mother figure because the father did not know where to go and his mother was always busy working therefore also Akira loved Sela very much and she always wanted to Sela was beside him because Akira also once felt that only Sela would not leave her and only Sela would only accompany her at all times.
"Sela.don't feel sad like this, I remember you being a cheerful girl and you once told me that when I am sad you will always be by my side and I am too even though in this world there are no more people who on your side believe me I will always be by your side I will be the first to pursue you and support anything for your good, I will not leave you again nor renege on my promise, I had another reason why I left you back then, maybe now your mother also has another reason why she did all this to you" Akira said.
Sela just confirmed her seat and she started facing Akira she also still does not know what reason makes Akira can leave her first, she said, never even attempted to contact him during his disappearance.
"What was the reason you left me first, and why didn't you say goodbye to me?" Sela asked him at the time.
Akira immediately held onto both shoulders of Sela he wanted to give Sela a trust back then and began to explain why she had left Sela suddenly without any news.
"I left because my mother was in her duty abroad, she also had time to sell this house but I forbade it so I bought this house again because I wanted to stay beside you, I left suddenly because I was taken away by my mother when I was sleeping soundly, she also did not know that I had a true friend like you, when I woke up, I was in the car, I've been in revolt and I've done everything I can but mom still can't change flights and she still won't let me meet you first because of her very urgent schedule, I was initially upset and disappointed with my mother because she made me stay away from you but now I know if only then I was late then my mother would not be able to return to this place again, I also probably won't be able to return to this country like now, because my mom said she'd be transferred to a central overseas company if she refused the temporary transfer contract." Akira explained everything.
But even though Akira has explained everything, Sela is still upset about it and she still asks Akira because she still did not contact Sela during her disappearance at the time.
"You'll be able to call me why you've never searched me on social media or otherwise to give me news, though I've been trying to find me your social media but I didn't find you should be able to find my social media account because you're a genius kid" Sela told him with a sullen frown.
"Can't be so long ago I'm not allowed to hold a cell phone that the time to study is very tight, I always remember you and I want to call you but there's nothing I can do when my mom limits everything so I can graduate quickly and get back to this country again soon, I was also angry with him but the proof is now that I will never go abroad again and my mother has been assigned to work in this country until she retires." Akira's reply to Sela.
In the end, Sela was also able to feel calm, she was happy because she finally got the news that Akira would not leave her again.
"Really, I'm so happy that if you won't ever leave me again, I love you so much Akira please don't leave me again, if until you leave me for the second time I will never accept you again I will really consider you dead!" Sela said sarcastically at that moment and Akira started smiling at him.
"Ahaha.iya.iya.iya.iya.I will not be able to leave you again," Akira told Sela who was immediately taken by Sela happily at that time.
"So now you think about it, if my mom and I have a reason why we did all that, don't you think that your mom has another reason for you, too, I'm sure she loves you so much and I know there must be a big reason why your mom has to work so hard that she forgets you, but she really doesn't really intend to do any of that, you have to know what the reason is you will understand the same as what I just did to you," Akira explained to Sela at the time.
And finally Sela began to fall silent she thought about all the things Akira had just said, he felt that all the words that Akira had said were true and Sela began to nod in agreement to what Akira said.
"Well I'll go see my mother, you'll accompany me too won't you?" Sela said at the time.
"True I'm coming, let's get ready." Akira replies to Sela at that time.
Moments later, they immediately went to the house and when Sela was about to open the door of her mother's nursery she heard the mother talking to Mr. Wen at that time.
"Wen me where is Sela does she still not want to see me?" Ask Ms. Choi to her husband.
Mr. Wen was seen shaking his head heavily because he had failed to invite Sela to the hospital.
"I'm sorry dear but it seems like he's really very determined to pass the exam this time with the same high marks as you expected, I think maybe we put too much pressure on him, I think, just let him pursue his dream you don't have to worry too much about any cost issues and all the things I can bear you also stop working and approach Sela just as you told me about your closeness and the harmony of your relationship with Sela, I also love her so much that even though she never considered me to be her father, let me work and let me stay close to your daughter as long as you and her can be happy, I'll find a higher-paying job after I'm in PHK." Old Wen said in there.
Sela was very shocked and her reflexes instantly widened her eyes when she heard the news that Mr. Wen had been exposed to PHK in her office, she now knows why her mother works and continues to work harder than usual until she doesn't have much time for her.
"Wen keeps working at that company even though maybe the salary is not as big as my salary, I don't mind that I can work harder to help you and support our family, Sela will still be in school and she will still pursue her dreams even if she wants to be an athlete, but I don't want him to be a regular employee like me after he retires from the athlete so I want him to go to school properly and get a high education so he can have second chance if he fails in his dreams." Lady Choi replied at the time.
Sela felt really guilty about what she had done to her parents, and immediately Sela barged in and immediately hugged her mother tightly while apologizing to her because she had been so stubborn and had continued to defy her mother all this time.
"Mother.hiks...hiks, I will study hard I promise tomorrow I will get good grades I will go to the best university like your dream I will pursue the dream well I will not make you difficult anymore, forgive me for not understanding earlier mother hiks..." Sela said in her mother's arms.
Lady Choi and master Wen were very shocked when they saw Sela suddenly just popping up and hugging her like that.
"Sela.hey...As for what is wrong with you why you are like this, I have never felt any distress with you" Ms Choi told him.
"I've heard everything mom and I understand how you feel right now, I'm sorry I misunderstood you and Mr. Wen, I'd be better off you don't have to be in trouble, you don't have to keep going overtime just to raise money for my future, you also do not need to find another job, Mr. Wen you can work with one job only if you are in PKH in your first place, I just want your time and your love for me I don't mind even if we're struggling financially." Said Sela while hugging old Wen too back then.
They embrace together and Lady Choi is so grateful that Sela can understand her now, as well as Mr. Wen, and Akira who was standing next to Mr. Wen he just smiled along with feeling happy because Sela had made up with her mother.
Sela also decides to return to live with her mother and will never sulk again, now Ms. Choi also has more time for Sela because she only works on a normal work schedule and does not take extra overtime.
During the final exam, Sela enjoys her mother's breakfast and dinner with her parents, even the grandmother could also be present in their house several times and Sela could again feel the emptiness of her family even though she could not have as much money as before, but that happiness is more than anything for Sela at the moment, besides that Sela has also been able to get on the club of marathon athletes that she has been waiting for so far. Although at that time Sela was also in the middle of the final exam but because she had studied a lot with Akira very hard even every time she still continues to study for her exam tomorrow.
Until the time where the test results had arrived, Sela sat down with trembling hands and she was very anxious about the results she would get back then, Akira who knew Sela was very unsettled, she immediately clasped Sela's hand gently and gave a small smile to her to give Sela confidence that everything would be fine by then.
"Let me be sure you will graduate with good grades" Akira told Sela at the time.
"Hopefully," Sela replied with a big smile on Akira.
Until not long she was called by teacher mother Yuni and at that time the face of teacher Yuni's mother looked very flat even when Sela walked forward and was about to take her grades and test results guru Yuni sighed the same as she used to do when Sela's grades were poor in the previous months.
"Huuhhh.this takes your grades and opens it when you're seated" said the mother teacher Yuni as usual, making Sela more lethargic and so anxious about her grades.
As Sela sits in her chair and Akira as well as Anet and Kiko get more curious about the result they immediately tell Sela to open it in front of them immediately.
"Sela let's open up quickly, I'm already very curious, my grades are quite good and I'm at least graduating I'm sure you'll graduate as well because you've worked harder than me," kiko said to her with great curiosity at the time.
Sela nodded and started to open it slowly but she closed her eyes when the paper was opened and instead left her friends shocked by the results she got.
"Wahh....Sela quickly open your eyes, Sela let's see the results!" yelled Anet and Kiko who were very enthusiastic at that moment.
Sela opened her eyes slowly until she was completely shocked to see the passing sentence embedded in the paper and the row of excellent grades she felt all her efforts had not been in vain and he was so happy that he immediately hugged Akira who was beside him.
"Woh?..hahaha..I managed to thank you very much Akira I love you very much, aahh I am very happy." cried Sela so loud.
Soon Anet and Kiko immediately turned their eyes away because they were very lazy to see Sela who was bravely embracing Akira in front of them at that time.
"CK you don't appreciate singles here!" said Akira at that time who only responded to the lively laughter of everyone.
They started celebrating graduation together and were very excited.
There Sela was finally able to get into a favorite university as well as Akira and they could study in the same place again, while Sela has also been accepted to a special club for long-distance running athletes that she dreamed of for a long time.
THE AND'S.
